Estimate this power combinations

Heres what i plan to get in the next few months:

Cutout with electrical switch
Borla catback
SSRA (Supersucker ram kit)
SLP Lid
Holley Air filter

How much power do you think i will be running ? Approx 1/4 times ? Can I get into the 12's with that ?

BTW i have a 2000 Z28. Question: SSRA is another option for the CAI, right ? Meaning that i only can i one or the other, correct ? Thanks : )

2000 Z28 lets assume a stock car pulling 295rwhp
Cutout with electrical switchloss of torque, small hp gain - 300rwhp
Borla catback why you would add a cutout to another cutout, I have no idea.. No gain. Borla, the $600 cutout.
SSRA (Supersucker ram kit) While your track times may improve but .1-.2 I do not see you showing any power gain. No change - 300rwhp
SLP Lidfinally! a mod! figure a gain - 308rwhp
Holley Air filtercotton gauze filter media more restrictive, figure a loss - 305rwhp

but without a good stock number we will never know.. get a stock dyno so we know what to add to it..

i've got a 02 z28 with borla, lid, k&n, and ssra. i pulled 328 rwhp, 342 rwtq on a dyno. and i'm guessing you might be placing the electric cutout where the borla catback has its built-in cutout so you can open or close that side of the exhaust....? if you do that, that's cool...of course placing it there won't give you more power. just a little less when you close it. if you place it somewhere else, well that's a different story.

i've gone to the track only once, only ran twice.
-street tires
-not so great clutch
-not so great launch

-second (better) run
13.52 @ 106.7

hope that might give you a little ballpark as to what you might expect from your car. of course my car has the ls6 intake since it's an '02....but hope all that helps you.
